Will NOT happen because he is too spineless. Sexual abuse oh please, get a life, so what, guys get sexually abused and don't go gay. He was born gay. Another excuse in the Haggard hypocrisy bin. Because I hate illiterate religious persecution soooo much, I will go and see his sordid documentary, and smile at his derision. Yes I am human, and there are some terrorists that deserve nothing more.

I know, I know... the poor kiddies in India could do with it more (the money, not the methamphetamine), but, hey, have they heard about Jesus yet??? No -- any wonder they are starving. He'll be back. Nothing like a redemption story to bleed the suckers. Well hell yeah, we’re also in the habit of purchasing methamphetamine we never use.

He's exploiting himself in making this show, but I see it as the type of self-exploitation David B. would do. I won't be surprised if he sets up his own "ex-gay ministry" in the future, which would be even more of a laughing stock than all of Exodus International combined.

If he did, he would likely keep young gay Christians from depression, substance abuse and even attempting suicide. Far from a loser, Haggard could end up a hero. I hope he comes to a place of peace where he can use his life to make the world a better place. Wouldn’t it be great if he accepted himself and went on to help other people.

I know what it is like to be disowned and disregarded on the basis of sexual orientation. I pray that he finds the comfort and courage to admit who he is and live his life honestly.
